Luxurious Unique, Private Paradise-Kangaroo Manor

This is a unique property built by a well-known meditation teacher as a healing retreat. Completely isolated, it is a hexagon with glass walls and a cellar. The property is 40 acres and set in the Little Yarra Valley offshoot of the Upper Yarra Valley. Our house is located on a high island of the valley with views that stun. We have approx 700 metres of Little Yarra River frontage with several acres of rain-forest (wet sclerophyll). There is also a pine forest and walks everywhere. We even have an old gold mine!

STYLE - The house is made from wood, much of which was originally cut from the property. I like to think it is a bit 'African Safari', it is the perfect excuse to escape the city and enjoy a more peaceful way of life.

WHY IS THE HOUSE UNIQUE? - Everyone who comes to the house adores it. They gasp at the views, revel in the serenity and marvel at the connection to nature. We have 200 kangaroos on the lawn and wombats by the pool at night as well as two resident kangaroos that visit often.

In addition to staying at our lovely house, we also provide the following so you can really enjoy your stay:
- A magnificent horizon pool setting with barbecue
- WIFI

THE KITCHEN
- A walk-in pantry with all of the basic cooking condiments including locally produced olive oil, salt/pepper, spices, herbs, flour, sugar, tea, coffee etc.
- Dishwasher
- Bread-maker, slow-cooker, juicer.
- Microwave
- Double Liebherr fridge

THE BATHROOMS
- Main bathroom completely renovated with a spa and double vanities
- Ensuite bathroom
- Our water is all natural from the tank. The pressure and supply is excellent

THE BEDROOMS
The house has four large bedrooms each has a 4 queen bed.

The master bedroom looks out over the valley and is truly a beauty to behold. The other bedrooms look over the garden. The kangaroos come onto the lawn in the morning and you can watch the clouds pass up the valley and even see snow on Donna Buang on the colder days.

HEATING & COOLING
The house is fully centrally heated, and has fans in every room for the warmer months. There is also a lovely open fireplace to cosy up to in the cooler months.

THE POOL
Our pool is amazing and huge. It is nearly 25 metres long and 10 feet deep (to mix my measures) at the deep end. The deck around the pool is expansive so there is plenty of room for entertaining during your stay.

THE LAUNDRY
Modern laundry with all the amenities.

OUTSIDE THE HOUSE
Apart from very large decks all around the house and pool, there is a terrace with large modern barbecue. We have large outdoor tables on the front and rear decks as well as the pool deck.

The garden is planted with rare and exotic plants and large established trees as well as a substantial orchard.

ACTIVITIES
Wineries, micro-breweries, restaurants, shops and country living are all at your doorstep. There are approximately 16 wineries within a 30 minute drive of Warburton.

The start of the popular Warburton Trail is also nearby. This is 29 km of gravel path for bikes, walking or horse-riding. There is also the aqueduct trail, close access to national forest and drives and trails on the property.

Other sporting activities include:
- Golf at the Warburton Golf Club (10 min drive)
- Cycling (local bike hire)
- Hot air ballooning at Healesville
- Nancy's of the Valley cafe at Yarra Junction
- Oscars restaurant at Warburton

A short stay in heaven.
We choose this property for its location. It's flora and fauna. It was everything we wanted for a relaxing recharge weekend. If only we could have stayed longer.
